Baked Apple Cider Donuts
The intense flavor of these donuts comes from adding apple sauce and apple juice concentrate.
Ingredients
- oil for brushing
- 1¼ cups (300 ml) all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup (50 ml) granulated sugar
- 2 tsp (10 ml) apple pie spice
- ½ tsp (2 ml) baking soda
- ¼ tsp (1 ml) salt
- ½ cup (125 ml) apple sauce
- ½ cup (125 ml) frozen apple juice concentrate, thawed
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp (30 ml) canola oil
- spiced sugar
- ¼ cup (50 ml) granulated sugar
- 1 tsp (5 ml) apple pie spice
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Brush the Donut Pan with oil.
- For the donuts, combine the flour, sugar, spice, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and whisk until just combined.
- Fill a large decorating bag with dough and pipe around each well until it’s about ¾ full. Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the donuts spring back when lightly pressed. Remove from the oven to a Stackable Cooling Rack. Let the donuts cool in the pan for 5 minutes before releasing.
- Meanwhile, combine the sugar and spice in small resealable bag. Add several warm donuts to the bag and toss to coat. Repeat with the remaining donuts.
